81 brat clutch cable


Recommended Posts

Last week my clutch cable went just as I was leaving a friend's house. Luckily it was midnight on Sunday and I managed the hour-long drive home without stopping. Anyway, it seems that Subaru clutch cables aren't available from parts stores in New Zealand, probably at the Subaru dealership but I haven't been there yet. I went to the junkyards yesterday which were full of ea82 and ea82t cars. I tried pulling out a cable from one of these, but access was difficult around the pedal area and the connection felt different. Does anyone know if an EA82 cable will fit an EA71 chassis with and EA81 engine?

Cheers,

Jeremy.

This is kinda funny actually. The EXACT same thing happened to me with my 81 brat not long after I got it.

Couldn't find the exact right one either.

Ended up getting one from a gen 2 brat, round 87'ish I think, so any ea81 car (maybe?), the fitting on the pedal end was a little different, just needed drilling.

Is still working perfect!

Good luck on finding bits!

Get that baby back on the road!
